Description
Barbados Island Travel Guide, Caribbean. Honeymoon, Holiday, Tourism. The most eastern of the Caribbean islands, Barbados is a relatively flat island with sloping plains, sporadic rolling hills and even areas of marshes and mangroves. With 60 miles of coastline, the island is an ideal place to enjoy the seaside. The highest point on the island is Mount Hillaby, which peaks 340 meters above sea level. Historical traces can be found throughout Barbados, from 18th century homes to the residual presence of colonial and Christian influences. Social activities center around the western and southern coasts, where tourists can enjoy waterfront pubs, nightclubs and more. To see more of the map, widen your browser. Attractions: In the area encompassing Bridgetown and the surrounding southwest coast, tourists will find engaging attractions like the Tyrol Cot House and Heritage Village. This site provides excellent insight into Barbados’ history, complete with the Chattel House Museum, a slave hut replica, an operational blacksmith’s shop and more. Likewise, at the George Washington House, guests can take a peak into the house where the famous Washington spent his time on the island. On the west coast of the island, known as the “Platinum Coast,” guests will be enticed by crystal clear water that gently crashes onto pristine stretches of sand. There are countless beaches to choose from in this area, including Paynes Bay, Sandy Lane, Batts Rock and more. Other recommended beaches include Cattlewash Beach on the east coast, Carlisle Bay located near Bridgetown, and the southern coast destinations of Crane Beach and Accra Beach. The interior of Barbados is equally attractive, with stunning sites like the Flower Forest. Located directly in the center of the map, this former plantation features numerous paths that traverse extensive gardens, which are home to flora from around the globe. At the Farley Hill National Park in the northern interior of the island, patrons will be enchanted by ruins of the former Farley Hill house, which was become a retreat for picnickers and nature enthusiasts. Likewise, the Barbados Wildlife Reserve located directly across from Farley Hill, and offers a marvelous glimpse into the natural wonder of Barbados. For a great day of hiking, check out the Welchman Hall Gully, which sits a bit south of Flower Forest
